This free project budget template is a downloadable PowerPoint slide intended to help business professionals simplify budget planning and tracking. The template displays the major phases and tasks of a project on a timeline, with cost estimation and budget utilization (%) assigned to each, while also illustrating the approximate duration of each task. Using this simple budget-and-timeline layout, project managers can:
The project budget template is a native Microsoft PowerPoint slide, which means it can be easily edited, updated and shared by anyone who has the application installed. Every object on the graphic is customizable, so users can change colors, texts, shapes and sizes, add or edit dates or task durations for increased accuracy, or insert extra categories and activities.
Professionals can make such customizations manually, using PowerPoint’s editing functions, or they can speed up the process with Office Timeline, a PowerPoint add-in that enables users to easily create clear project visuals for important communications. Office Timeline Plus makes it simple to enter or import project data right into the budget template and updates it instantly when plans change. Using the add-in, project managers can quickly repurpose the template for status reports or other communications instead of having to create new visuals from scratch every time.
Use the Office Timeline PowerPoint add-in to quickly update any of these timeline templates or create your own project visuals. Easily change the texts, dates, colors, shapes and styles of your timeline, right from inside PowerPoint.
